"This book deals with sensitive subject matter that may be upsetting to some readers."
“No, Rainey. Let me look at you. I love looking at you. Even when I close my eyes, all I see is you.”
I dropped my arms, my legs trembling. This was Rowan, the sweet, kindhearted boy I loved. Yet, in that moment I feared him. The adrenaline was wearing off and I was suddenly so cold.
His lips parted as he stared at me, those blue eyes I knew so well slowly taking in my body as heat blazed behind them. He’d grown so large, twice my size at least, and it had never occurred to me how strong he was until now. Nobody would pick on him anymore. Not without getting their asses handed to them in a fight.
“Can I touch you, Rainey?” His eyes lifted to mine. “Is that all right? For me to touch you?”
“Always,” I whispered, unable to put any strength in my voice. “You can always touch me.”
He stepped forward and I stepped back out of instinct. He would never hurt me. Not Rowan. But what I saw in him now was the predator that had always lingered just beneath the surface. He wasn’t a monster like his family or David. Not him. He was something else entirely.
Pain shot through his eyes when I moved, his hands fisting at his sides. “Do I scare you now?”
Shaking my head, I forced my mouth to move. “No. It’s just -“
“Just what?”
“You’re different, Rowan. A man, I guess. You’ve grown.”
Blue eyes held mine, the darkness in them seeping away, but not entirely. His lips pulled into a tight smile. “You need a man. I’ve become exactly what you need. For you, Rainey. Not anybody else. Just for you.”
I drew in a rattling breath. “Touch me.”
Rowan moved forward and I held my ground, craning my neck to look up at him. He was shaking, his skin so cold that I knew I had to fix him somehow. “Rowan?”
“Yeah?”
“Will you kiss me?”

Author Lily White brought it!
In her signature dark & twisted style of writing, she just blew me away with this story.
I did not see any of it coming...
I was floored.
I was stunned.
I was aroused.
I was hurt.
I was loving every word as I read.
I fell for the one person I should have not and knew it.
I wanted to believe everything Rainey said...
but there is always a but,
the quiet ones are always the ones that you least except to surprise you.
I had soo many theories on the outcome and not one of them was right because Author Lily White knows how to throw you off her scent on where she will take the story and that is what I like about reading her books.
Totally not predictable ever.
This book took me on an emotionally charged & mind blown ride that even after reading over a week ago, I am still thinking about soo many things that happened in this book.
Go grab it and be ready to have your secret little detective self and come out to play on who Rainey & Rowan really are.
A Top 2019 Must Read!
Loved it!
